ApplyHavokImpulse - ObjectReference

Member of: ObjectReference Script

Applies a Havok impulse force to this object of the specified direction and magnitude.

Syntax

Function ApplyHavokImpulse(float afX, float afY, float afZ, float afMagnitude) native

Parameters

• afX: X component of the force vector.
• afY: Y component of the force vector.
• afZ: Z component of the force vector.
• afMagnitude: The magnitude of the force vector - how hard to hit this object.

Return Value

None.

Examples

; Apply a physical force along the x axis with a magnitude of 5 to a cheese wheel
CheeseWheel.ApplyHavokImpulse(1.0, 0.0, 0.0, 5.0)

To get a heavy object like a weapon to go flying as if hit with a very large force you must use a magnitude such as 10,000:

;sends testaxe, a heavy object, flying across room
;along the positive y-axis
testAxe.ApplyHavokImpulse(0.0, 1.0, 0.0, 10000.0)

To get an Actor to react to a havok impulse, you may need to apply a "push" first.

; launch the skeever up into the air
Game.GetPlayer().PushActorAway(Skeever, 0.0)
Skeever.ApplyHavokImpulse(0.0, 0.0, 1.0, 1000)
